Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
॥
मराठी मूळ
धर्म रक्षावया साठीं । करणें आटी आम्हांसि ॥१॥
न बाणतां स्थिति अंगीं । कर्म त्यागी लंड तो ॥२॥
तुका म्हणे अधम त्यासी । भक्ति दूषी हरीची ॥३॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
We must make every effort to protect righteousness. One who abandons prescribed duties before attaining the state of inner realization is merely a fraud. Says Tuka, the worst of all is the one who brings dishonor to the devotion of Hari.
